1 Pleasing to Allah is for One To always speak the Truth even if it hurts

2 Allah commands us to be people of truth Allah has created this whole universe on the basis of love, and has demanded of the people that they should build their life on the foundation of truth and make truth and straight dealing a practice of their life When the truth is lost by people, false stories, superstitions and absurd beliefs will appear and then hardness will become generated and people will then move away from the right path

3 So For this reason the pillar of a Muslim's character is Truth and Straight dealing Allah's Messenger has said: “Keep away from ill-thinking, because ill-thinking is the greatest falsehood (Bukhari) Another hadith says: “Leave alone doubtful things, follow those matters in which there is no doubts for truth is a means of satisfaction and falsehood is the cause of doubts and misgivings.” (Tirmizi)

4 Superstition is a form of falsehood and unfortunately many people are superstitious. Allah condemns those who follow superstitions and conjectures: “They follow nothing but conjecture and what their own souls desire, even though there has already come to them Guidance from their Lord.” ( An-Najm..23) “But they have no knowledge therein. They follow nothing but conjecture and conjecture avails nothing against Truth” (An-Najm.. 28)

5 Islam respects truth it turns away liars “Allah's Messenger did not hate anything as strongly as he hated falsehood, If he received in formation that a particular man has told a lie, he used to throwaway that man's respect and honor from his heart till the time he was not informed that he has repented for it,” (Ahmed) “For the Messenger of Allah falsehood was the worst habit in a person, If any man told a lie in his presence, that man's thought always troubled him until the time he was informed that he has repented”, (Ibn Habban)

6 To be a Believer one must understand that Falsehood is a Great Curse and one can never be a Believer until he rids himself of it Falsehood discloses the wickedness of the person who does it and leads to the person committing sins. “All the evils can be found in a momin, except dishonesty and falsehood.” “All the evils can be found in a momin, except dishonesty and falsehood.” (Ahmed) The Messenger of Allah was asked whether any Muslim could be a coward. He answered : “Yes.” He was asked: “Can a momin be a miser ?' He said that yea, he could be a miser. He was again asked: “Can a momin be a liar?” He replied: “No !” (Malik)

7 Also the prophet said: “One night I saw two men. They came to me and said:' Any man whom you see talking by widening his jaws, consider him a liar, He tells a lie which is copied through his medium, till it is talked of in the whole world. He goes on doing this till the Doomsday.” (Fathul Bari )

8 Making false promises is a form of lying. The Prophet said: “Three persons can never enter Paradise. First the old man who commits illegal sex, second the man who tells lies and third that poor man who indulges in pride.” (Bukhari) (Bukhari) z

9 Also included in falsehood is lying on Allah and his Prophet and this is done by mis-quoting the Quran and the Authentic ahadith “The consequence of inventing falsehood against me is not as bad as it is for inventing falsehood against anybody. Let the man who purposely and wittingly makes a false statement about me make his destination Hell.” Bukhari

10 The Prophet warned that one of the signs of the last hour will be that truth will dissappear and the people will be dishonest with one another. This is happening now and He warned us to beware of this: “In the last period of my Ummah there will come people who will be deceitful, liars. They will tell you things which you would never have heard, nor have your forefathers heard them. Be wary of them; let them not misguide you and let them not involve you in corruptions.” (Muslim)
